New No's from Badlands Unlimited

Today, Badlands Unlimited has posted a new Publisher's Note inspired by Yvonne Rainer's No Manifesto. New No's acts as a protest against the drift of American society towards what is most un-American.

No to racists
No to fascists
No to taxes funding racists and fascists

No mercy for rapists
No pity for bigots
No forgiveness for nativists
No to all those

No hope without rage
No rage without teeth
No separate peace
No easy feat

No to bounds by genders
No to clickbait as culture
No to news as truths
No to art as untruths

No anti-Semitic anything
No Islamophobic anything
No progress without others
No meaning without meaning

No means no
No means no
No means no
No means no

✖

No al racismo
No al fascismo
No a los impuestos que contribuyan a los grupos racistas y fascistas

Impiedad para los violadores
Impiedad para los intolerantes
No hay perdon para los nativistas, mentes excluyentes
No a todos ellos

No hay esperanza si no hay bronca
No hay bronca sin dientes
No a los convenios armamenticios
No hay victoria facil

No a la limitacion de generos
No al anzuelo facil como provocacion
No a los informativos mediaticos que falsean la realidad
No al arte como mentira

No al antisemitismo
No a la Islamófobia
No hay progreso sin inclusion
No hay significado sin significancia

No significa no
No significa no
No significa no
No significa no...
